The trip will be a wonderful, exciting, educational experience for you. We ask that you dress in uniform slacks or shorts (depending on the weather) for the first day of the trip because we will be touring the Capitol building. It is important that the students dress appropriately. The month of May in Wisconsin can be cold, hot, rainy, snowy, or somewhere in-between. You should be ready to add or remove layers of clothing as the temperature demands.
Necessary Items
Day 1 - Uniform tops and bottoms.
Day 2 – Completely different clothing, including shoes and outerwear.
Tennis shoes and boots are preferable for both days. (NO sandals or flip-flops)
Warm jacket, raincoat or poncho, sweatshirt, and/or sweater, and a pair of rain boots (dress for predicted weather)

Duffle bag to hold overnight items
Backpack to hold books, folders, travel games, cards, etc. on bus
Lunch (including your reusable water bottle for the entire trip, no glass bottles) for the first day. Bring it in a BAG that can be thrown away, not a COOLER.
